Commuter Rail - Garner to West Durham

I am an idiot. Durham Road already goes under the tracks. Oy!! :man_facepalming:

Back to the drawing board (but, this is a better condition to start from).

OK.

  1. Add the house track and the high level platform on either side (yellow).

  2. Buy and renovate the warehouse (blue) for the head house with a passageway to the platform/house track adjacent to the NCRR/NS H-Line and tunnel under the main line to reach the platform/house track adjacent to the CSX S-Line.

  3. Add the additional parking deck (green) next to the current ‘Town of Cary Parking Deck.’

  4. Keep Jordan Lake Brewing as an amenity item.

  5. Widen East Durham Road to accomodate the BRT’s with plenty of room off of Wilkinson for a turnaround, either in front of the new station or looping around the Cary Municipal campus.

  6. And, depress Academy and Harrison while keeping access to the old CYN which will retain its municipal functions.

My budget just dropped quite a bit.
